Student reviews

Great professor for material science. I advise against skipping class at all, I missed a few classes and he sent an email to a handful of students including me that we had to check in with him at the end of each class for attendance from now on.ME2340 2025-12-15 21:43:35 +0000 UTC
Very nice and professional instructor. highly recommended.ME2340 2025-11-07 02:54:19 +0000 UTC
He was an amazing person who always tried to crack jokes and cared for his students. Midterms were a bit tough, but they gave a very generous curve. If you put in the work you will get the grade you want. Office hours are amazing Explain everything perfectly and will sit with you until you understand. Always smiling and so happy to teach.ME2340 2024-06-03 19:18:55 +0000 UTC
Great professor, very generous grading, accessible in office hours, organized online material. If you genuinely put in the work each week and ask questions during office hours when you don't understand anything, this is an easy A.ME2340 2024-06-03 19:18:39 +0000 UTC
Prof. Peter was a great professor. Canvas very organized. Recorded lectures posted on canvas w/ annotations. He goes very quick, which was difficult for me and I had to rush to get notes down but he also pauses to ask for questions sometimes. Grade is heavily reliant on 2 midterms and a final. Go to office hours, read the textbook.ME2340 2024-04-27 18:04:13 +0000 UTC
This professor was a very tough grader and had the hardest exams. He went very fast in lectures and this is supposed to be a easy class but he made in very difficult. Although tough, he is very organized.ME2340 2024-04-25 23:43:28 +0000 UTC
Professor Schindler had a very organized canvas and presented the material in a way that was very easy to understand. He was also extremely willing to answer any questions in and outside of class. His class was extremely well structured and he made it easy to succeed if you put in effort.ME2340 2024-04-25 17:36:32 +0000 UTC
Prof. Schindler is an ok lecturer, but where he shines is having great annotated slides online and very accessible and helpful office hours. The midterms are difficult, but he places a generous curve to bring the average to a B.ME2340 2024-04-14 18:41:29 +0000 UTC
